A network of pathways linking all districts to City Center's retail, parks and other services needs to be facilitated through the creation of easements as opportunities present themselves . 10 .

Specific land use designations and site layouts are ,the logical next steps, keeping the following points in mind: 1. The Corridor area is in need of improvement; current commercial uses are infringing on residential areas without adequate buffering. 2 . Lot depth along Old Highway 10 needs to be-in- creased to permit ef- ec ive site layout and on-site traffic management. 3 . Individual lot access along the highway needs to be either consolidated or phased out and new access prohibited. 4 . New development should be on a scale consistent with the neighborhoods, recognizing this may require financial assistance from government sources . 0491-1 (No Revisions)
